Is it shaded Mimi, and does it get wind exposure?

I have had some blue silk do the same and don't know why either! We need an mg expert!

nope/ its on my porch. no wind. Seems like all the seeds I got from Parks seed this year. (first time using them) the morning glory were all torn. The rose silk. and this. All from the fuji collection. very odd I think. I can understand maybe one...but all of tehm? Its like they are so thrilled to be born. they burst forth with too much speed. Doesn;t matter which side of the house they are on.

I don't think it's the seed companies fault - it's the variety. The corolla is just too delicate and tears easily. I've torn some trying to adjust the blooms for pictures. Just touching them makes them tear. We need some MG hybridizers to improve the varieties available :o)

oh. well, all I know is the fuji collection from parks. they all tore. lol/ makes sence though. I realize the company has no control over things like that. wondering if anyone else ordered this collection and the same thing happened to them.
